You're expecting a career autist like Randall "I have a ball pit in my living room" Monroe to know that.

I'm not, but my point was the people who are dumbstruck by how well versed he is in hard science -- and he is; there's no taking that away from him -- do expect his knowledge to cover a lot of fields. On the subject of free speech, if this comic is anything to go by, he's on the level of any of the lefty lolcows on this site, and his legion of fans will never, ever admit it...or even recognize it, most likely.

That knowledge only really stands out because it's unusual in a web comic artist. Thousands of people have a fair understanding of physics, but most of them work jobs pertaining to physics and have little to no online presence.

When did he say that? He should volunteer his house for a Dashcon reunion and offer tumblrinas an extra hour in it as long as they don't piss in it like they did last time.

If anything the dynasty argument holds more water against Hilary than it does Trump, but of course Hilary can do no wrong as far as Bob's concerned.

I think this post is in favor of a Clinton dynasty but against a Trump dynasty. He and others like him have been complaining about the criticism that Chelsea has been receiving over the resent push of her in the media. The criticism of her is perfectly valid though because she has done jack shit to actually earn any political capital other than having powerful and rich parents.

His family are ignorant clods? That would include his daughters too. So Bob made a misogynist comment.

The Trump A-Log Community actually does say a lot of horribly sexist things about Trump's wife and daughters. Remember these are the same people who call Clarence Thomas and Ben Carson "house niggers".

MovieBob really needs to change his name to TwitterRantBob. He's far more focused on raging on the Internet than his job.

 

[Oh Long Johnson]

Bob's centrist candidate was radical. That's the story. The GOP framed her as radical and it is totally unfair. Right.

Mrs. Flowers and Sunshine's crew got Bernie labeled an out of touch, nigger hater. Also, his supporters rape everyone they encounter.

And Trump is Hitler reborn. With a small cock.

That shit was totally fair. Hypocrite.

"[...] cultural hatred of women/POC [...]"
Then how come Get Out/Hidden Figures/Fast & Furious are smash hits, people still love hip hop and a black guy won the last two elections?

 

[RockVolnutt]

What debate on Civil Rights and cultural hatred is he talking about? No one's bothering my family over in Trumpland, our time out here is honestly an improvement from living in the ghetto yet here's this fat fuck yelling at his monitor from his basement about everyone hates us.

Did you really expect anything different from Bob? He'll hate anyone who doesn't agree with him.

Also, for all the times he uses the word 'misogynist', does he even know what it means? Or is he saying it because he thinks it makes him sound smarter (scratch that, it probably is the reason why he uses that word).

Bob throws this crap all the time. Usually he's too cowardly to criticize women on his own, but he loves retweeting passive-aggressive shit.

Don't expect any logical arguments to back up crap like this. People like Bob Chipman just expect you to take their statements at face value.

I've always hated that comic but I just could never articulate why it bothered me so much. This hits the nail on the head though and I'm glad someone finally broke it down as to why it sucks. I'm so sick of people like Bob acting like human rights are granted by the government rather than respected by it.

It's actually the tip of the iceberg I tried to keep most of the cricisms relavent to US politics for example what does the author mean by goverment?What part of the goverment? For example does the inam council of Iran count as goverment? do local political groups such as school boards?
the author isnt wrong in the strictest sense,bellowing racial slurs in public might get you fired. but his problem is he's overeaching because it's expediant to the current climate, he thinks they pressure people who he hates into silence by obaying the laws of freedom of speech even if he ignores the spirit but he hasnt considered the long game where it's really easy for non-liberal groups to use the same tactics so he's really fucking himself in the long run.

The biggest problem with it is that Randall shows absolutely no awareness of, much less respect for, the principle of free speech or free inquiry. Sure, you can shut down any speech you disagree with if you control a private forum, and in some cases it's even appropriate -- who wants to get into a brutal, ugly discussion of religion on a chess forum, for instance? But when you close yourself off to dissenting ideas, you learn nothing and only have your views and beliefs reinforced, to the point where any opposing thoughts seem not only incorrect but objectively wrong or even downright evil. A private university could decide to have no right wing speakers, but what kind of university refuses to challenge its students' and faculties' beliefs? (Which is one major reason why modern academia is turning into a horrible joke.) The comic is an exercise in Puritanical finger-wagging: "Oh, sure, you can say whatever you want over there, and the government can't, like, arrest you for it, but don't you dare speak your mind in a place I care about!"

Randall's cowardice in not addressing what, specifically, he's referring to in the comic doesn't help matters, either, but it's why it's become a go-to argument for the sort of person who unironically uses the phrase "freeze peach," and it's a pretty good cameo of the sort of free expression arguments an ogre like Bob is wont to make.

That answer is easy.

Whichever choice is most convenient at the time.

How exactly is Trump's family a dynasty? I mean, he's the only elected official in his family and so far his children haven't expressed interest in becoming president. If it's because his family is being granted government clearance, well then that's stupid because they're his family and they should at least have some access, considering they're related to the leader of the country.

If anything the dynasty argument holds more water against Hilary than it does Trump, but of course Hilary can do no wrong as far as Bob's concerned.

Bobby doesn't mind political dynasty at all; Clinton, wife and daughter will usher in Superior Future (unless the daughter miraculously turns Republican, in which case Bobby will rant about political dynasties as absolutely evil.)

Serious question, how do you end up that much of a pawn without it clicking that something's off? I've followed Bob for a while and it's still astonishing.

He's astonishingly stupid.
